Who knows. Maybe the Army will also force him to contribute to AER. DOH!!!

If he’s court-martialed, I would think he’d have the right to subpoena the Nirth Certifikat!
Thank you Mr. Easterling!
~~DING !
I think you're essentially correct. Anyone capable of serving as a competent soldier will despise our Community-Organizer-in-Chief, but they will not mutiny. On the other hand, Obama will not have the talent needed to use our military in an attack on one or more states if they exercise their right to secede [and, no, secession is not treason].
Wow..BRAVE MAN!! A REAL MAN!! Between this and Senator Shelby today..I am beginning to have hope again. Something is up!
"Obedience to Orders as a Defense.—To determine how far obedience to orders may be pleaded in defense, it is necessary first to understand the military duty of obedience. " The Article enjoins obedience to the ' lawful ' order of a superior. The order of a proper superior is presumed to be lawful, and should be obeyed where it is not clearly and obviously in contravention of law," for, as will presently be seen, an inferior will not in general be held liable by a court-martial for an injurions conséquence of his execution of the order of a superior,1 unless the same was palpably illegal on its face. Unless, therefore, the illegality of the order is unquestionable, the subordinate should obey first and seek redress, if entitled to any, afterwards.'"
At this point, it appears Lt. Easterling isn't disobeying orders, but rather is seeking clarification on weather or not any orders given by Barry are lawful.
Is that a court marshal offense?
A CLM?
We need to get thousands of officers and enlisted soldiers to join him.
CLM?
Career Limiting Move...
People around the country and even here at FR have no idea how bad this guy is and how fast he will destroy the country.
Lt. Easterling is defending the Constitution. Curious responses by some of the keyboard commandoes here plus one or two of the usual O shills using their DNC talking points.
40 year old 1LTs don't have much of a future in the Army in any event and I suspect he knows that already.
Thanks.
Telling the truth, and asking the right questions, shouldn’t be a CLM.
It is, but it shouldn’t be.
"Col. Riley former division chief national security agency joins our action"
We ask our patriots from MO, OK , VA, and FL, where Colonel Harry Riley lives and was stationed to join the action and support their brave military constituents and fellow State Representatives!
Profiles A Retired Colonel, Riley is "the recipient of the Silver Star, Legion of Merit, Bronze Star and other awards and badges – including the Combat Infantry Badge, Parachute Badge, and Army Staff Badge. He served over 34 years in the US Army. He was commissioned as a 2LT in 1966 and promoted to Colonel in 1989. He served in command positions from Detachment through Battalion level and staff assignments from Brigade to Chief of Staff Army level. He served two tours in Viet Nam and did several tours in Germany."
This is starting to gain momentum. Soon, the MSM will find it very difficult to keep this hush hush.
Correction, Col. Riley....not Lt. Col.
To have the credentials of our commander and chief withheld, whatever anyone says, is a coup. We have thus far reliniquished our Constitutional constraints on who could be president, and demonstrated our willingness to be blindly led to subservience. I suspect there are many in government fully aware of what is happening, telling themselves that when his popularity has declined, perhaps then they'll join some group asking for a review Obamas Constitutional qualifications. It will never happen, as people who understand power divide and conquer.
Lt Easterling is a hero, whose neck is further exposed than the patriot legislators in Tennessee. Rick Santelli, another hero, has gotten some press exposure. Might some press exposure help Easterling? I'm retired military, and can guess that Easterling has stirred a hornet's nest in his company. He will now pay whatever price the left can extract. Is there some way we can make it worth his sacrifice?
You have to destroy the Constitution in order to save it. Makes perfect sense. </sarcasm>
